Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDE FGHG IBJB KBJB

'Will you love me sweet when my hair is greyA
And my cheeks shall have lost their hueB
When the charms of youth shall have passed awayA
Will your love as of old prove trueB
-
'For the looks may change and the heart may rangeC
And the love be no longer fondD
Will you love with truth in the years of youthE
And away to the years beyond '-
-
Oh I love you sweet for your locks of brownF
And the blush on your cheek that liesG
But I love you most for the kindly heartH
That I see in your sweet blue eyesG
-
For the eyes are the signs of the soul withinI
Of the heart that is leal and trueB
And my own sweetheart I shall love you stillJ
Just as long as your eyes are blueB
-
For the locks may bleach and the cheeks of peachK
May be reft of their golden hueB
But my own sweetheart I shall love you stillJ
Just as long as your eyes are blueB
